- Comment. I'm not crazy about the composition to be honest. It doesn't seem 'naturally framed', as the top left corners are cut off. Diliff (talk) 23:44, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- I didn't have too much to work with if I wanted this to be good. I actually cropped some more off the right yesterday before nominating because that had some distracting light there. There isn't much more on those upper left corners. Daniel Case (talk) 07:17, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
- Actually Daniel, coincidentally I also visited the chapel and Painted Hall at Greenwich Hospital yesterday but unfortunately wasn't able to take any of the kind of quality photos you'd expect of me. The problem with visiting randomly is that you're at the mercy of whatever event is going on at the time - the chapel had choir singing practice for the entire afternoon until closure, taking over the front of one whole side aisle with quite a big group so although it was really beautiful singing, it wasn't really conducive to photography. I took a few photos of details such as this but nothing that I was happy with. The tonality was very different though, as the interior lighting was stronger and the light from outside was fairly dark and overcast. I won't link to any of my images of it here as I don't want to distract from your nomination but I'll post something on your talk page. And the Painted Hall was a bit busy with lots of volunteers buzzing around. I was specifically told not to use my tripod in there too, which is pretty much essential for high quality photography. I took a few hand-held panoramas to get an idea of what I could expect, but hand-held indoors usually results in stitching errors and mine were no exception so nothing I took was publishable on Commons. I'm hoping to visit another time and see if I have more luck with finding the two interiors a bit quieter. Apologies for spamming your nomination. ;-) Diliff ( talk) 23:44, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- No problems. Looking forward to seeing your images. Daniel Case (talk) 07:17, 27 February 2015 (UTC).
- Support Nice shot. Great eye for details. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 19:04, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose I don't see anything special about it. It looks like a random composed part of the ceiling. The cropping is too tight. Nice to illustrate an article but not an FP in my opinion. - Benh (talk) 08:48, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose Similar to Benh. I do support the idea of taking and uploading "detail" photographs rather than "fit the entire interior into one huge photo" approach always. That the result will often not have wow or composition enough for FP is not a reason to refrain from such image making -- a comprehensive set of photos of a building is valuable and we can't expect all to be spectacular. -- Colin (talk) 11:43, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
- Support Very good composition, good lighting, good sharpness. May be that there are similar photos but this one is very good too. -- Lothar Spurzem (talk) 15:26, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose. I'm afraid I have to oppose. The details are very stunning and I like the interplay of cold and warm colours, but I think it is let down by the awkward composition. I know it's difficult as there are no natural features that could act as a frame for it, but I think it needs more space on the top left corner to avoid cutting off the edges. It's a bit like cutting off the hand of Jesus. ;-) Diliff (talk) 10:01, 4 March 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose Strange composition and perspective. — Julian H.✈ (talk/files) 17:34, 4 March 2015 (UTC)
